On June 13, 2026 my 2023 Range Rover Velar (79,772 miles) suffered a sudden, complete engine failure at highway speed on HWY 70 in Durham, NC. No warning lights, oil pressure alerts, or dashboard notifications appeared before or during the failure. The vehicle had operated well since purchase with no prior issues of any kind. I was to cross the hwy onto the shoulder, this was a serious safety hazard for myself and other motorists. Land Rover is holding me liable for $32,000 in repairs, claiming a maintenance interval overage of ~36,000 miles caused the failure. No written root cause analysis has been provided. I am disputing this for four reasons: 1. RECALL N763 / N763v3: This recall covers a camshaft carrier oil gallery defect on 2023-2024 Velar engines causing oil leaks and engine damage. My VIN falls outside the listed range, but my failure is fully consistent with this defect. I request evaluation for recall expansion. 2. OIL FILTER HOUSING TSB: A TSB for 2023 Velar Ingenium I6...

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The Lane Keep Assist (LKA) system on my 2023 Range Rover Velar P250 has lost its active steering intervention capability following one or more Software Over The Air (SOTA) updates. The system no longer applies corrective steering torque to keep the vehicle within lane markings. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Lane Keep Assist was a functional active safety system at the time of purchase, applying steering corrections to prevent unintended lane departure. That active intervention has been removed or disabled through a software update without my knowledge or consent. The vehicle now drifts across lane lines at highway speeds with no corrective action from the system. This increases the risk of a lane departure collision, particularly during momentary driver inattention — the exact scenario this system is desi...

First, this is a brand new purchase and vehicle had less than 6K miles before electrical issues with oxygen sensors (3), which all had to be immediately replaced. The vehicle was out of service for nearly one week. Second, which I consider a major highway safety issue is the backup camera array. At night this camera is rendered useless because your visibility is greatly impaired. It possesses a risk to not only the driver, but outside surroundings. My recommendation is to have these cameras replaced with better functionality and greater resolution for driving purposes. If you have not tested the backup cameras during nighttime conditions, I highly recommend you doing so to get an idea of my grave concerns.
